Vinobot field robot agronomist Bashny.Net

Little helper goes around plants and studying their condition. Raboroko it measures temperature, humidity and angle of the leaves. The data the robot sends to the researchers, who are trying to figure out how to most effectively use the space of fields under cultivation of various crops.

In this case Vinobot has a partner — a tall tower with 3D cameras solar. It scans the crops and looking for problem areas. In the case of suspicion there is sent to the robot assistant. Robot with roborate sensor creates a volumetric model of a plant that allows farmers or scientists to remotely determine how a plant copes with the current weather conditions. The robot consider even the angle of leaves to the stem of plants. This information is particularly important during droughts. Scientists will be able to monitor how plants behave under harsh conditions.

The robot collects data on humidity, light and temperature in different parts of plants — the temperature is measured at three different heights. All information obtained is used to analyze the current method of crop planting. In theory, such measurements should lead to the optimal density the option of planting fields. Today, the main task of humanity is to figure out how in the same field to grow several crops as efficiently as possible. Without it, mankind just will not be able to cope with the saturation of their growing population.

Another approach to the production of food — changing the format of growing plants. Transfer them from the fields in different closed systems. One of these trends become digital farm, where intelligent sensors analyze the condition of the plants, lighting and watering systems and feeding fertilizers is included automatically. There are LEDs instead of the sun and a nutrient solution instead of soil.





In any case, agriculture is an area where people are already much inferior to robots. So the tractors-autopilot copes with entrusted to them by the fields. And Japan is already planning to oust them part of the living of farmers. People change to robots and dairy farms. The robots continuously monitor each of the plants. Man will never achieve this efficiency personally. published
